Powering up the N/A

[Rotary_Powered]

Alright so my set goal is to atleast make it up around STOCK S4 Turbo power (182 flywheel hp). A 34 hp gain! Hopefully I can match that! I'd like to bring the 0-60 to sub 7 seconds. and the 1/4 to high 14's or 15.0 ish; I prefer AutoX but those specs will mean my acceleration is a bit better. I'm going to stick N/A so....

My game plan is as follows:

-Full synthetics all around
-Exhaust
-Intake
-Header
-Cat
-Wires + plus
-ECU Fuel/Ignition magnagment. (Apexi or Rtech7)
-Fly Wheel/Clutch.
-S5 Intake manifold (maybe?)
-Custom Intake manifold Insulator

Anything else? Pullies? TB mods? Other things that will help accelearation are going to be weight reduction (about 100lbs) to bring the FC down to about 2525 lbs. And suspension upgrades to help get every last ponny to the ground.

Good luck. I suggest a slight portjob. If you can make 182 no lag ad only 2525 lbs (my stock TII is 3,000 lbs) then you'll be looking at low 6s because my car does the 60 dance at 6.7 sec.

so are those things that you are going to do with your rx7 the same mods you would do with an rx8?
what can you do for these engines? and how much power/acceloration can you make with out going turbo or supercharged?
